“Stealing in a military camp is no small crime.” Yun Che’s expression turned serious.

"But we can't cure her now. We have no evidence. Let's wait a little longer until she reveals the truth. This time she took such a big risk to frame me. I can see that she can't sit still anymore." Song Wanning said with a smile.

“I will protect you, don’t worry.” Yun Che would not let her fall into any danger.

The next morning, A Tian went to help the kitchen as usual and happened to meet Gu Yong who was having a day off.

Ah Tian stopped him and said, "Where are you going? Have you had breakfast?"

Gu Yong was flattered by her sudden concern: "I have eaten. I don't need to be on duty today. I'm going to the city to buy some things. Is there anything you need? I'll buy it for you."

Ah Tian thought about it seriously and said, "My tea is almost finished. If it's convenient, can you go to the shop in the east of the city and buy me half a pound of tea? I'll give you this much silver first. If you don't have enough, come back and tell me and I'll give you more."

How could Gu Yong accept her money? He quickly declined: "It's just half a pound of tea leaves, a small amount of money, no need for you to pay. Don't you have anything else besides tea leaves?"

"No, we just need tea leaves. Thank you for your help. What would you like to eat tonight? I'll make it for you."

Gu Yong was simply elated: "Just make some pancakes as usual, and if possible, two scrambled eggs with more salt."

"How about this, I'll make some soy sauce eggs, which are also salty and taste better than scrambled eggs."

Ah Tian kept talking to Gu Yong with a smile.

Gu Yong felt that the sun must have risen from the west today, otherwise why would he be so lucky?

Xu Lian had been watching A Tian secretly, and when he saw that she was about to cook for Gu Yong, he knew that she was looking for an opportunity to poison her.

After Ah Tian finished her work, Xu Lian found her and said, "You poisoned him so blatantly, aren't you afraid that Song Wanning will be the first to suspect you?"

"I'll make more for others to eat, so that he'll be the only one in trouble. From outsiders' perspective, he and I have a close relationship, so who would suspect me?" Ah Tian showed contempt, and it was obvious that she thought Xu Lian was extremely stupid.

Xu Lian curled her lips: "It's fine as long as you can get yourself out of this. I'm just afraid that you'll get me involved. We are now on the same boat. If something happens to you, I can't escape either, so I came to ask."

"My arrangements are very careful, so you don't need to worry about it. Where's the poison? Give it to me. I'll give it to him tonight."

Gu Yong came to the city and first bought the tea that Ah Tian needed. Then, when he passed by a jewelry shop, he couldn't help but stop and look inside.

"My dear military officer, my shop has a variety of new jewelry. I guarantee that they are of good quality and low price. Please come in and take a look!"

Gu Yong was moved by what he said and stepped in.

"Master, are you buying jewelry for your wife at home?"

Gu Yong shook his head.

The shopkeeper immediately smiled and said, "It's for my sweetheart. This hairpin is new in our shop. It's a style that came from the capital and is most popular among the young ladies of noble families. How do you think of it?"

Gu Yong fell in love with this lily hairpin at first sight. It has a transparent texture and beautiful color.

"How much silver?"

"We were originally going to sell it for five taels of silver. Sir, you have worked hard to protect our common people, so we'll give you a discount. How about two taels of silver?" The shopkeeper was very good at doing business and spoke very nicely.

Gu Yong bought it immediately.

Then he bought some things he needed and set off back to the military camp.

When they returned to the military camp, it was already sunset. A fragrance came from the inner camp. Gu Yong smelled it and it was the scent of fried eggs.

Then I saw several soldiers holding bowls with steamed buns and soybean paste eggs in them.

He was a little angry. Wasn't this braised egg unique to him?

When he arrived at his own tent, Gu Yong saw A Tian already waiting inside.

"Brother Gu, you're back!"

This title made Gu Yong calm down.

"You, why are you here?"

His face turned red with embarrassment and he almost stuttered and couldn't speak.

"I made you some soy sauce eggs and pancakes."

Gu Yong sat down and prepared to eat, but couldn't help asking, "I see everyone is eating soy sauce eggs today?"

"Yes, I originally wanted to make it just for you, but the chef said that since we're already making it, we can't be partial and make one for each of you brothers. I have no choice but to make more. Brother Gu, you won't be angry, will you?"

Ah Tian quickly explained, carefully observing Gu Yong's expression.

Her cautious look made Gu Yong feel distressed: "How could I be angry with you? This is the tea you wanted to buy. I was afraid you would get tired of it, so I bought some dried chrysanthemums. The owner said it can dispel internal heat."

Ah Tian took it and said, "Brother Gu, thank you. I'm very happy. You've been tired all day and must be hungry. Come and eat."

"You can eat with us."

Ah Tian shook her head: "I've already eaten, it's okay, you eat, I'll stay here with you."

Gu Yong's face turned red all the way to his ears. He stammered and took out a hairpin from his chest and gave it to Ah Tian: "Ah Tian, ​​this is for you. It will look good on you."

Ah Tian was stunned for a moment: "What is this?"

She had never received such a gift before. This was the first time. Moreover, the hairpin was very beautiful and really pleased her.

"I just saw it at a roadside stall. I bought it casually. It's not expensive. You can just wear it for fun." Gu Yong said casually.

Ah Tian simply couldn't believe it. This texture and style definitely couldn't be made at a roadside stall.

Gu Yong felt a little embarrassed. In order to hide his embarrassment, he picked up the bowl and chopsticks on the table and started eating.

"I've never seen scrambled eggs like this. I'm starving. Let me try some."

For some reason, A Tian suddenly wanted to stop him.

"Don't eat it!"

She looked strange, but Gu Yong had already taken a big bite.

"what happened?"

Things are irreversible and Tian can only harden her heart.

"It's okay. You're so nice to me. I'm just worried that the food is too simple and may not suit your taste."

"I've been in the military camp for so many years, I'm used to it, I can eat anything."

As soon as he said this, Gu Yong felt something was wrong, and then quickly explained: "What I mean is that these meals are very much to my taste. As long as you make them, I like them!"

After Gu Yong finished eating, A Tian cleaned up the dishes and left.

At night, when Gu Yong was patrolling the military camp, he suddenly fell to the ground, foaming at the mouth and twitching continuously.

The soldiers around him were startled and hurried to ask Song Wanning to come over.

Song Wanning first looked at Gu Yong's physical features and found that he was poisoned, and the poison was very serious. If he delayed any longer, Gu Yong would die.

"Bring the stretcher over here, and carry General Gu back to the tent! No one is allowed to follow without my order!!"
